Driving Growth Through Rapid and Sustainable Digital Transformation

Looking ahead to 2024 the imperative for companies is not just to transform but to do so swiftly and sustainably. The race to create value quickly is essential for navigating global economic uncertainties and ensuring long-term growth. Successful digital transformations require a dual focus: speed at the start and the ability to maintain momentum and embed operational changes for lasting impact.

Getting Ready for the Race

Many organizations falter at the starting blocks due to entrenched behaviors and practices that hinder rapid outcomes. Proactively identifying and addressing barriers to speed is crucial. Sprinting at the start involves turning initial bursts of digital ideas into a practical, rigorous plan within months. Quick wins generated in this phase not only excite and commit teams but also provide funds for long-term digital ambitions.

To support a rapid start, companies often turn to digital initiatives linked to the balance sheet. Enhancing working capital through optimized digital inventory management or streamlining digital invoicing processes can generate rapid returns, laying a solid foundation for further digital investments. A healthy digital balance sheet not only accelerates the transformation but also builds resilience, providing companies with strategic options during economic uncertainties.

Maintaining the Pace

While initial signs of value creation are promising, the temptation to declare victory too soon must be resisted. Organizations often fail to sustain their digital impact as performance discipline erodes after the initial digital implementation. In the second phase of digital transformation, organizations must actively seek new digital value-creation opportunities and align incentives with refreshed digital goals and commitments.

Building and Embedding Digital Capabilities

The potential for digital value creation starts diminishing from day one, emphasizing the critical role of operational digital infrastructure. Transformations losing momentum often neglect building and retaining the digital skills necessary for success. In the second phase, organizations should focus on digital capability building, ensuring that over 30 percent of employees are engaged in digital programs. This not only boosts employee digital health but also delivers better Total Shareholder Return (TSR).

Focusing on digital capabilities enables companies to maintain a rapid pace throughout the transformation. From swiftly executing digital initiatives to embedding successful digital practices for the long term, building and retaining digital skills is essential. In today's ever-changing business world, capturing untapped digital potential is not just a luxury—it's a necessity for sustained digital success.
